    Now we have finished November, let's look at the dramatic progress of the team. We had our best ever day, clocking in 4.4 million in a single day. We had our best ever week, with 26.5 million, our best 3 hour update with 798,000 points, and more importantly, we raked in 108 million in a single month, our best ever. To put in perspective, in July we managed a dismal 67 million points, meaning we've near doubled our PPD. Kinda insane huh?

    Well Done Everyone,

    I'm a happy bunny this morning as I achieved 294,000 points yesterday. That the biggest points jump awarded to me since I started folding! Well lets keep on folding and get back to the top 5 teams!

    Yes there is an Asrock S478 board with PCI-E I've got one here with a 8800GT running on it, did have a GTS450 on it but couldn't get it to run at 100% utilisation, didn't bother trying to work out what was limiting it.

    I put in what I believe has been my best month or at least one of them to date in November, returning 313K points, and I'll level with you all - that's less than half my full production capacity at the moment.

    I'm not quite sure I'll ever make it to getting SR2's involved and returning hundreds of thousands of points per day... my goal of 150K PPD out of 2 machines still remains though. At the moment I can get 90K PPD out of 3, but that will all change when the new quad 295 rig is finished early next year.

    It's not full, but you're not the first person to inform me of problems PM'ing me on here... I'll give Jamie a shout in the morning and see if he can get to the bottom of it. Don't worry about the screws, I appreciate you having a look for them, but I've ordered up a new set for it anyway to allow me to use the air block until I get the liquid block back onto it and get it incorporated into a loop.

    150K will be very nice, and it will be great to be folding 24/7 again. I've missed it so much - it's almost like a drug! :D

    I think everybody can give themselves a BIG pat on the back.

    Drug addiction would be cheaper! I have shelled out £2k on 980X Sabertooth and triple SLI eVGA 460s, hoping to double my 30k ppd

    You started it :p

    An insanity shared is an insanity halved as my barking mad Uncle Fester used to always say :D

    Great to see you coming back at it with a vengeance Uni :thumb:

    Nice one :cooldude:

    With all these new rigs coming online we should be able to surpass overclocker's ppd and might not be far off the Russians again. Congrats to us all, I think this is getting really quite exciting :)
